Hello,

I'm on 2012.2. Has this functionality been added, or do I need to perform workaround?

Thanks!

I'm looking into upgrading to version 11.1, and we used to use this exact workaround.  However, in 11.1 I'm finding that Utilities.GetDescendantFromType(ribbon, typeof(XamTabControl), true) as XamTabControl; 

now always returns null.  Is there a new approach I should be using?

Excellent, that was easy.  Although, you can probably remove the Margin setting as this is not used in other Office 2007 applications.

However, I am still interested in Support letting us know when/whether this will be built-in functionality...

My code is somewhat different, but I think this should work for you:

    var btnHelp = new ButtonTool
    {
        LargeImage = new BitmapImage(new Uri("pack://application:,,,/Images/Icons/Ribbon/Help.png")),
        ToolTip = AssemblyHelper.ProductName + " Help (F1)",
        Width = 22,
        Margin = new Thickness(0, 0, 3, 0),
    };
